Function keys are located beneath the display, their action may vary depended on the screen user is currently viewing. The function currently assigned to each of the function keys is described on this bar. More information can be found in chapter: Menu. The middle part of the screen shows current results and calculations. The analyser samples results every 2 seconds. All values are averaged according to the selected averaging time. Averaging time is set by user in the Measurement parameters. Averaging time is used for smoothing the results: The example 1: averaging time = 2 seconds In time T 0 the analyser shows result measured / calculated in time T 0. In time T 2 the analyser shows result measured / calculated in time T 2. The example 2: averaging time = 10 seconds In time T 10 the analyser shows result: (T 0 +T 2 + T 4 +T 6 +T 8) / 5 In time T 12 the analyser shows result: (T 2 + T 4 +T 6 +T 8 +T 10) / 5 The contents of the screens can be freely defined by the user. To do so, one must use PC computer software mportable.exe. The program can be found on the software CD included with the analyser. On the CD there are also several configuration examples: "ResScreens_1.bin",..."ResScreens_4.bin" 10

Pressure measurement allows to perform differential pressure measurement (see chapter: Pressure measurement) Soot measurement allows to enter 3 values of the soot test. Ambient CO measurement starts the measurement of CO concentration in the ambient air (see chapter: Ambient CO test) Leakage test starts test for gas system tightness Zero the pressure sensor this commend performs relative zeroing of the pressure sensor. This means that the currently measured value of pressure is assumed as the zero. It is important to perform the zero pressure sensor only before starting the measurements. Moreover, the analyser should be in the same position during the measurements as it was during zeroing the pressure sensor. Calibrate O2 to increase the accuracy of long-term measurements, the GA- 12 analyser allows to calibrate O2 sensor on the fresh air. Before calibrating the sensor one must remember to extract the probe from the stack and wait for O2 sensor values to stabilise. 3.3.4.

Any change to the sensor calibration made by unauthorised personnel can cause the lost of the proper calibration data, which, in a consequence, makes the device useless for the measurements. Therefore, the calibration procedure can be taken only as the last resort! Be sure you are familiarised with the procedure and you are equipped with suitable calibration gases. The calibration of the sensor is made with a reference (calibration) gas of a known concentration. The reference gas should be applied to the sensor for at least 4 minutes. After each calibration it is necessary to ventilate the device with a fresh air for at least 15 minutes. Before proceeding with the calibration, the warning screen is displayed: Drawing 31. Calibration warning screen 24

Drawing 32. Calibration of the gas sensor. The calibration screen contains a table with sensor's signals. The description of the values in the table: ppm currently measured gas concentration. M signal stored during the last calibration. S sensor's current signal. Below the table there is a reference gas concentration value. Press Change function key to enter the concentration of the reference gas you intend to use during the calibration. Follow the steps below to proceed with the calibration: 1. Enter the concentration value of your reference gas. 2. Supply the analyser with the reference gas for at least four minutes wait until the signals in columns ppm and S are stable. 3. Confirm the calibration by pressing OK function key. 3.3.6.5.2. PRESSURE CALIBRATION Before proceeding with the pressure calibration, the warning screen is displayed: Drawing 33. Calibration warning screen. Any change to the pressure sensor calibration made by unauthorised personnel can cause the lost of the proper calibration data, which, in a consequence, makes the device useless for the pressure / draught measurements. 25

Therefore, the calibration procedure can be taken only as the last resort! Be sure you are familiarised with the procedure and you have suitable equipped required for pressure calibration. To perform the pressure calibration the precise reference pressure sensor is required. Drawing 34. Pressure calibration screen. The pressure calibration screen contains a table with the values: Measured current values of signal (uv) and pressure (Pa) Stored values of signal and pressure from the last pressure calibration Below the table there is a reference pressure value. Press Change function key to enter the reference pressure (measured with the precise, reference pressure sensor) Follow the steps below to proceed with the calibration: 1. Enter the value of the reference pressure. 2. Supply the reference pressure to the analyser pressure inlet wait until the signals in columns Signal and Pa are stable. 3. Confirm the calibration by pressing OK function key. 3.3.7. Print? Drawing 35. Print? screen 26

To call the Print? Screen press function key. The last measured values are stored in the analyser's buffer from where they can be printed. The analyser can print averaged results or results from a specified report. The numbers on the right represents the printout form. Report forms (1 8) can be changed by pressing left / right arrow key. Printout forms can be defined from the PC software. Forms 1 4 can be freely defined by user, forms 5 8 are defined by producer and cannot be modified. Forms 5 and 6 are defined for measurement results, forms 7 and 8 are defined for reports. Before printing, turn the printer on and direct its communication IR diode towards the analyser's IR diode (the maximal distance between the analyser and the printer is 2 m) Drawing 36. The direction of the analyser towards the printer in order to print. 27

4. MEASUREMENTS 4.1. Pressure measurement Drawing 37. Pressure measurement test Pressure measurement is called from the screen Action and allows to perform fast measurement of the differential pressure. The right function key P 0 allows to perform zero the pressure sensor. The middle function key OK stores the currently measured pressure. Then this measurement can be shown on the screed or printed. Esc function key returns to the previous screen. 4.2. Ambient CO test Ambient CO test is called from the screen Action. The analyser measures the concentration of CO gas in the ambient air for the 60 seconds and stores the averaged result from the test in the analyser's memory. Drawing 38. CO ambient test screen. On enter, the Ambient CO screen shows the result from the previous test ('---' value means there was no previous result). Press the OK function key to start the measurement. To change the Ambient CO test settings press the function key. There the threshold values can be set. If those thresholds are exceed the analyser alarms them with the beep sound. 28

Drawing 39. Thresholds of the Ambient CO test. Alarm 1 is the first threshold and can be set from 1 to 20 ppm (with 5 ppm step). If this level is exceeded the analyser beeps once every 1 second. Alarm 2 sets the second threshold level. It can be set from 20 to 100 ppm (step every 10 ppm). If this level is exceeded the analyser beeps twice every 1 second. To change the threshold press left / right arrow keys or OK function key. To return to previous window use Esc or function keys. The Ambient CO test is preceded with the screen below: Drawing 40. Confirmation of the Ambient CO test. During the test, the analyser shows time till the end of the test in the top right corner of the screen. In the middle of the screen the averaged result (since the beginning of the test) is presented. Drawing 41. The result of Ambient CO test. When the test is done, the result is stored into the analyser's memory and can be shown in the analyser's Results screen. 29
